The industry presents us in terms of API management solutions with a hard trial, and always promises holistic ("full lifecycle") solutions. But an important component for a successful API, in the sense of fast and high-quality time-to-market, is often left out and usually dismissed with a simple sentence such as: "We'll take care of that via a CI/CD pipeline". In this presentation, I would like to show how nginx can be a part of infrastructure to send APIs that meet the respective guidelines of a company on their way to rapid deployment, supported by CI/CD pipelines with a certain degree of automation. In order to create a certain value for the company.
